The passing of a trade to the next generation still exist.

The picture about is pretty close to what happened in our kitchen, starting in July 2020.

Three things we accomplished during this Pandemic so far.

Purchase a home, remodel the home, and moved into the home.

The purchase and the move parts in were straightforward. That is no drama or shortfalls.

The remodel

The exciting part of this journey was the remodeling of the complete inside of the home.

We explored several options, including hiring a general contractor. The idea soon faded when we discovered the contractors were months out because they were too many projects and not enough workers.

The only other option was managing the entire process ourselves. My wife over the year had viewed many of the home improvements shows combined with knowing exactly what she wanted in the home.

The beginning process, the kitchen.

The kitchen was a galley-style kitchen. Dark with one way in and one way out. There was a drop ceiling. So, it was very confining and not an inviting room.
